VS GOLD
Since the pandemic, there’s been an uptick in the consumption and creation of financial content – people with idle time and money, reassessing their lives and careers, and looking to learn lessons in the stock market. And I love that. A few years ago, I felt like most people wouldn’t even know who the Fed Chair is – but now everyone’s so embedded into the world of money. And with that, I want to keep this gold versus bitcoin conversation going because I want our readers to educate themselves as much as they can. When Michael Saylor speaks, it's almost an act of non-violent offense – like Muhammad Ali shadowboxing alone in the ring. his comments with Game of Thrones and Madonna references. At the same time, Saylor’s straight-faced, almost like he’s just a conduit for the bitcoin gods. Since the debate, so many people have reached out to me – even my hairstylist heard about it.

Once we got the green light, we haggled around agreed- upon topics, and for most of it, I felt like I was mediating a very civil divorce proceeding. And I’m proud of that civility, that we avoided two talking heads shouting over each other, which comprises nearly all of “news” content today. Listen, these two gentlemen have nothing to prove – they’re at the top of their respective games. They wanted to talk about these two assets, not just because they’re experts, but because they’re passionate about it all... And they want to inform investors worldwide. In the context of the debate, Saylor was the Zen, existential philosopher, often seeming like he’s soliloquizing in a vacuum. When he speaks, it’s almost an act of non-violent offense, like Muhammad Ali shadowboxing alone in a ring. Meanwhile, Frank is the direct, pragmatic one, and came prepared with very strong punches.
